"It's still this city, four years, nothing has changed, Fang Wen is still hiding in a place I can't see, this city... That city ......"

Zhou Xun's voice is very special, and people who hate her think that her voice is a male duck voice, a smoke voice, and it is very difficult to hear.

People who like her think her voice is very textured, like an old time machine, full of stories.

Her hair was messy and her voice was unscathed.

All the emotions are hidden in those eyes, there is heaven and earth, there is smoke in the air, there is buried youth in her eyes, but there is no one.

She was like a watchman who had stood in place for so long that she couldn't bend her legs, straining her neck against fate and herself.

There are no mountains and flowers, and there is no heartbreak, she just tells her waiting and her search so calmly.

"I didn't think that one day he disappeared I would wait for him, but the truth is, I waited for four years and waited for ......"

She just told you plainly, this is my story.

Looking at you is the only expression of my love for you.

……

"Tsk, it's a weekly news!" Hu Ge subconsciously reached out and grabbed another handful of popcorn and sighed.

Yang Mi even forgot to chew the popcorn just now, and only then did she react, and said while chewing: "I think I can do it too!" ”

"You?" Hu Ge thought about it and still didn't hit her, and agreed, "Your Guo Xiang is really good." ”

"I also played Wang Zhaojun, haven't you watched it?"

"I didn't see it."

“……”

Master Liu couldn't help but say loudly: "Can't you two watch a movie quietly for a while?" ”

“OK！” As soon as Yang Mi responded, he saw Li Qing and Jing Tian appear for the first time on the screen.

"They call this stereotactic deep brain electrode guided brain core destruction surgery, that is, the use of stereotactic technology to find the nerve in your brain that specifically relies on the fourth, and then use microelectrodes, boom! Blow it up! ”

Jing Tian actually acted very well in this section, her overall state and body movements are restless, and this restlessness is certainly not unreasonable.

She wanted to tell the other person about her past, but that past was unbearable.

So she needs to make a layer of packaging, packaging that experience into sublime, as if telling Li Qing: Look, you don't know this, I know, I have experienced it.

And this kind of packaging can't go overboard and at the same time leave room for herself to pull, so she uses this restless state to cover up her indifference, as if she is just telling the other party an interesting thing.

Fun facts are just fun facts.

So at first glance, Jing Tian gives people the impression of a hedgehog at first glance, with teeth and claws, and he doesn't care.

But when she clenched her hand into a small fist and stretched out in front of Li Qing, her five delicate and white fingers suddenly opened, and the cautious tentative meaning in her eyes made her character's image come alive at once.

Jing Tian has always been a very serious person, no one knows how long she has been preparing for this scene, maybe only the short biography full of words knows.

Li Qing is also very serious, but compared to Jing Tian, he is much more casual.

He hadn't written a character biography, even if he had struggled for a long time, but he just wanted to set the overall character framework, that is, to figure out what kind of person Fang Wen was, and as for the more specific details, he left it to instinct.

That is, in the character's mode of thinking, what the character will do, then how to do it.

So he didn't speak, just tilted his head slightly and looked at Jing Tian and smiled.

The curvature of the corners of his mouth is not large, and even the muscles on his face have not moved, but he can feel that he is laughing, and the smile ripples in his soft eyes, and the spring water is slight, so it overflows.

At that moment, the picture was inexplicably harmonious.

Jing Tian's performance is really good, but it may be because the restless state she presents makes the rhythm of the whole scene a little floaty, like duckweed, you can know at a glance: Oh, the movie.

But Li Qing just smiled slightly, and dyed the whole scene with a layer of background, like a pool of blue pools, not only took over Jing Tian's play, but also had a quiet and natural moisturizing nature.

When you see it, you think, "Oh, it's my girlfriend telling a story to my boyfriend."

That kind of harmony is like the meeting of golden wind and jade dew, making the whole picture appear fuller and more three-dimensional.

"These two are too compatible." Master Liu seemed to be infected by Li Qing's smile, and unconsciously showed his aunt's smile.

"I think he's better suited to Zhou Xun, right?" Yang Mi said, "Actually, to be honest, some people are naturally suitable for standing under the camera, they seem to have a lonely and deep sense of story, as long as they stand in front of the camera, it is like a very dense stone pressed in the picture, and all the magnetic fields are naturally concentrated on them."

Playing against this kind of person, no matter how much effort you use, it is like punching cotton, and people can easily take all your strength with just one look or one expression.

People like this are what we often call God to eat, just like Zhou Xun and me, a junior. ”

Hu Ge pouted and said, "Hey Pig Woman, you just said that you can go to you." ”

"So, God also rewarded me with food." Yang Mi smiled proudly, like a little fox who had stolen a chicken, and said smugly, "This is talent, we are the kind of people, you don't understand this kind of person when you tell you." ”

“……”

While chatting, the poet committed suicide by jumping off the bridge on the screen, and the intense background music attracted the attention of several people.

The rhythm of the whole movie also changed abruptly from here, and it officially entered the field of director Cao Baoping.

Cao Baoping's favorite thing is to use the internal perspective of marginalized characters living at the bottom of society and the city to portray their panic and confusion under the hustle and bustle and pressure, and then portray the inner conflicts of the characters and examine the struggles of human nature.

The rhythm transitions from soothing to tense in an instant, and peace to anxiety.

Whether it is Li Mi, Qiu Huogui, Qiu Shuitian, including the policeman Ye Chengcheng, they are all chess pieces in Cao Baoping's hands, and they all seem to have become ants on a hot pot under the camera, and that sensitive and anxious state is affecting the audience's emotions through the narrative perspective of internal focus.

This influence will not be alleviated by the small humor in the plot of the film, such as Li Mi played by Zhou Xun because the magazine with the photo of her boyfriend Fang Wen was lost by two drug dealers, and suddenly exploded emotionally to suppress the drug dealer, but he was intimidated by the objective condition - the threat of the knife.

The audience in the theater did laugh when they saw this paragraph, but it was fleeting.

Because under the director's audiovisual language, the tone of the film has been set to death, that is, gray, struggling, and heavy.

This is also why many times it is said that actors are just pawns in the hands of the director.

What is an inward-focused narrative?

The so-called inward-focused narrative perspective is equivalent to an image of the "hidden narrator", in which the camera only narrates what a certain character knows, allowing the audience to fully perceive the character's audio-visual and thinking through the perspective of being one with the narrator.

And the audience of the whole movie has a God's perspective, so they naturally have a vague premonition that the final ending of this story will definitely be disillusioned and broken.

It is precisely in this situation that Li Qing's performance is highlighted.

Because his performance is very [flat].

This [Ping] is not [wood], his performance is changing, but the core and rhythm of the characters he presents are like a deep well, and all emotions are hidden under the well.

Just like Cao Baoping said to Li Qing, you are more like a poet than that poet.

So this is in stark contrast to other people's anxiety, generally speaking, when these two emotions exist under a single camera, they may spark, but once they exist alone, there will be a sense of separation.

It's as if I'm going to go to the oil pot here, and you're still fishing, not because of the separation of the painting style, but about the separation of mood and rhythm.

And this is also the reason why Cao Baoping and Li Qing had a disagreement at that time.

Li Qing's reason for persuading Cao Baoping is very simple, while telling Cao Baofang the character's [I am willing to give up this world for you] concept of love, he has completely displayed the character arc of this character in front of Cao Baoping.

In other words, Fang Wen played by Li Qing is at a different stage from other characters, because when Li Mi and the others were still struggling and fighting, Fang Wen had already made his own choice.

The hidden, dynamic, confrontational, and progressive nature of the characters' personalities will no longer change.

That is to say, when the personalities of other characters are still growing and changing, he is already a complete body when he appears.

Because of this, if you want to play the role, it is actually a test of the actor's skills.

At the same time, this is also a test for the director's rhythm control.

Fortunately, Li Qing is a very worry-free actor.

Or that God appreciates food, or that he and Fang Wen's role are incomparably compatible in some way, which makes him feel like a fish in water after building a good image.

His [Ping] is not really Ping, the character he presents is weak, like a gray wall that has been chiseled by a sledgehammer, which has long been broken, but it is just hung in one breath, and at first glance it is still intact, and when you look at it slightly, you will find that the surface is full of dense cracks.

Of course, the director will give the audience a chance to pay attention.

So Fang Wen and Li Mi finally met after four years and 1,500 days and nights.
